Scott's View: Military Olympians at Vancouver Winter Games
Scott Higgins, WeSalute Co-founder & Co-CEO
Have you been checking out the Winter Olympics in Vancouver? As with so many Olympiads, these games are well represented by those who served our country. My favorite, the bobsled, where all three men's U.S. Olympic bobsled teams -- were piloted by a current or former National Guard member. My favorite is John Napier, who joined the Vermont National Guard to repay his mother for $25,000 in debts, so he can fulfill his bobsled dream. He has also formally requested to be deployed to Afghanistan soon after the games are over. Great kid!
